What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
The built-in responsive-mode feature, where Claude replies in a sentence before thinking or using tools, is now held back when Claude Code runs inside Slack or Teams. Claude Code tells this from the CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT environment variable, a value that records how Claude Code was started. Responsive mode is not offered when that value is any of these:
claude_in_slack
claude-in-slack
claude-in-teams
Everywhere else it is still behind the tengu_quiet_ember gate, which the code treats as false when the flag server gives no answer.
Why
If you use Claude through Slack or Teams, responsive mode is not offered there, whatever the gate says for your account.
The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.
This account: off · anonymous baseline: off · compiled default in v2.1.281: off
These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.
